TwinStar White 80mm iOptron Computer Controlled Refractor Telescope
Sale Price: $289.99 |
DescriptionIf you're looking for an entry-level telescope that does it all, you've come to the right place. Simply align the telescope with the North Star, choose the object you want to see on the handheld controller and the computerized mount does the rest. The fully coated achromatic 80mm primary objective lens is maintenance free and ready to use right out of the box. With a short 400mm focal length, this little bundle of power packs a super-fast F/5.0, which means its the perfect light-gathering instrument for wide-field and deep space astronomy. With this kind of light-gathering power, you will see bright images of anything through either of the two powerful Kellner eyepieces. That makes this telescope ideal for just about any observing application. The iOptron SmartStar-E Alt-Azimuth Mount, a.k.a. The Cube, is probably the most functional and flexible unit on the market. Both axis motors are built into a small single unit. In addition, there are no "dead spots" -- so you can point your telescope anywhere above the horizon, whereas, other mounts block the telescope tube at certain points of rotation. This mount also comes standard with AC connection. The mount also accepts 8 AA cell batteries for use at home or in the field (Batteries sold separately). The revolutionary GoToNova computerized control system is the most technologically advanced automated tracking system available on the market today.

The GoToNova Controller is much easier to use than other similar products. The hand controller is more intuitive with menu categories better organized. It also has a larger LCD screen with more lines of content compared with the competition. Using the easy-to-use hand controller, you can easily set up your telescope and select where you want to go.
